  1. i am throwing size 10 and the one i caught all the fish on was olive & silver.
  2. I've complained about this rod on this site before BUT NOW I'VE REALLY HAD IT ! everything that i've read amout this rod (on this forum and other reviews on the web ) say that it's extremely sensitive. WRONG! today i was fishing a jig and couldn't feel the bottom as i was dragging it ower the rocky bottom. Thats not all i also lost 4 fish with it I HAVEN'T LOST 4 FISH IN THE PAST 2 YEARS ! and today i lost 4 the rod is a kistler magnesium all purpose spinning 6'6"med. i am sticking w/my g loomis rods unbeliveably sensitive and i don't lose fish. I DON'T KNOW MABEY I'M JUST SPOILED BY MY G LOOMIS RODS .
  3. IT WAS AWESOME !!!!!!!!!! the 1st cast i had a big one and lost it when i got it to shore. the second cast i caught a 4 pounder the 3rd cast i got another one and he wrapped around a bush and i lost my new x-rap good thing i bought 3 of them.
  4. i have a loomis sjr 783 6'6" MH that i love but if you're going to throw lite worms i use a g loomis BSR 803 mossyback jig & worm rod and it's my favorite rod . http://products.gloomis.com/gl/products/alltackle/detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524441768923&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302032711&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474395181201&bmUID=1212241244077

  8. I have the kistler magnesium all purpose med 6'6" spinning rod and it's a really nice rod , all the new magnesium rods are all fuji components i made sure i asked them before i orderd it . if you buy one do yourself a favor and put a nice lite reel on it. PS my best finesse rod is my g loomis bronzeback smr 811 sp http://products.gloomis.com/gl/products/alltackle/detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524441760513&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302032504&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474395181201&bmUID=1211079162497
  9. i have fished the charles river in waltham ma for years . i have never fished a jig though because the water really isn't clean enough for crayfish to live and i know that a jig is supposed to mimic a crayfish . am i wrong do you think that i should try fishing jigs in these waters ?

  11. I am interested in buying a new legend elite spinning rod but i am looking for one to use as an all around rod spinnerbait , crankbaits, tubes , senko etc. witch one do you recomend?
  12. I never heard anyone say anything bad about them BUT ! i bought one a few years ago the first fish that i caught on it ( about a 1lb bass) the rod snapped about 3" from the tip. I hav had ove 100 rods in my life and that was the ONLY rod that ever broke fighting a fish. (i have broken others in car doors and stuff like that) I haven't fished one since.
  13. as a matter of fact i learned about the phonebook trick from a stren package about 10 years ago.
  14. PS http://www.setthehook.com/reels/plueger/supreme.html
  15. i have a g loomis bsr 803 mossyback w/ a pfleuger supreme 8030 reel it' my best set up . the bsr 802 is even lighter . the 803 is a med heavy rod w/an x fast tip but it will throw from 1/8 - 5/16 and the 802 will throw 1/8-1/4 i think it's exactly what your looking for GOOD LUCK! http://products.gloomis.com/gl/products/alltackle/detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524441768921&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302032711&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474395181201&bmUID=1210126567469
  16. When i spool a reel i put the spool of line on the floor put a telephone book in the front of it open the book about 1/4 lay the line between the pages (use your judgement , if it's to tight when you reel don't go so deep in the book) i don't know why but it gets the memory out of the line.
  17. i just got a g loomis sjr 783 6'6" MH its probably the best rod i own , i also have a mossyback bsr 803 jig & worm rod that i use for an all around rod this particular rod is my favorite spinning rod.
  18. i've used that rod in the spinning model and it's one of the best rods that i have ever used.
  19. I have 3 of them and i love every single one of them more than my $ 229.00 shimano sustain 2500.
  20. I got a some crap from other members when i pretty much said the same thing about the garbbage ardent spinning reels.
  21. i have a bronzeback a mossyback and an imx and they all have them
  22. G Loomis sjr 783 imx w/a shimano sustain 2500 G Loomis bsr 803 mossyback w/a pfleuger supreme G Loomis smr 811s bronzeback w/a pfleuger supreme kistler magnesium all purpose w/pfleluger supreme ALL SPINNING SETUPS
  23. i have 3 loomis rods and the johnny morris are very high quality extremely lite and sensitive, not to far from the loomis imx that i have.
  24. these 2 rods are unbelivable the only difference between the two is the elite has recoil guides and the other one has fugi guides you will be extremely happy w/ either one as far as a reel goes a pfleuger supreme for 100 bucks can't go wrong PS my buddy just sent back a e21 carrot stick because the reel seat wouldn't hold the reel tight. http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_58453_100002002_100000000_100002000_100-2-2 http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_90405_100002002_100000000_100002000_100-2-2
